The Walkman series have been around for awhile now. But this is the first time Sony has incorporated Bluetooth into its player. Sure its a good idea, but will anyone actually use it?

Well to be honest i don't use the bluetooth function(I got the model that doesnt come with the bluetooth headset). This is for a number of reasons:
Firstly, buying a pair of bluetooth headphones isn't too friendly to your wallet.
Secondly, these earphones dont really sound as good as wired ones.
Thirdly, I just dont see the point.

Besides that, the supplied earphones are AMAZING! Although you can get a better pair, there is really no need to do so. The sound quality on this thing is also superb(its the main reason i got it). This baby totally kills the ipod when it comes to sounds. Its clear crisp sound and deep bass makes it far better than any ipod out there(yes, i do prefer it to the touch).

Aside having a boatload of sound enhancing tools, it also comes with around 36 hours of battery life. Well to be honest is says that on the box, but after turning on all the bells and whistles, its take slightly over 30hours to totally kill the battery(yes i did try it for myself). Although this is true, charging it only takes around 3hours.

So, all in all, get it if you need a player with awesome sound, good picture quality and bluetooth. If not, its a waste.
